eReader Lending

Have you ever thought about buying an eReader, but weren’t quite sure if you would enjoy reading with one? The Chestermere Library has eReader kits available for loan so you can try before you buy!

eReaders can be borrowed for up to 3 weeks and are available only to registered Chestermere Public Library cardholders.

Each kit includes the eReader, USB or power cord and instructions. The eReaders are loaned out in factory reset conditon. This gives you the experience of setting up the eReader from scratch yourself - just like when you purchase an eReader. You can then load the eReader with any ebooks you want from 3M Cloud Library and Overdrive.

Important points:

The kit can be borrowed for 3 weeks, just like a book and can be renewed twice if there are no holds.

The kit must be returned to the front desk, not in the bookdrop (outside or inside).

You are responsible for returning the entire kit contents. Kit will not be considered "checked in" until all contents are returned.

You are responsible for replacement of kit if damaged.

You need a computer at home with internet access to download and transfer ebooks to the Kobo Mini and Kobo Glo. The Sony Reader and Kobo Arc can use any wifi connection.

If you are interested in borrowing an eReader Kit, please ask at the front desk or you can place a hold on TRACPAC:
